Following on from another thread, I thought I would start this one about your first canters/gallops while out hacking.
My first ever one was on a horse called Basil on this little bridle path that went uphill, having to dodge the branches because it was a liitle wooded and following my instructor! But it was the most brillant feeling ever! Basil was so calmly canterering along with his ears pricked forward that I clicked to him to make him go faster! I really felt like a racing jockey because I was also in my jumping forward position! Nevertheless I was on a high all week and can still remember the pictures I drew of me and Basil cantering!
Anybody else?
